Tasting Note

This Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2015 has a bright ruby color. The nose reveals notes of Morello cherry, liquorice and moka. The mouth is round and supple with a delicate woody taste.

It has lots of purity in the red fruits on the nose, no elaborate oak or fireworks, just a little sweetness on the bouquet. In the mouth the fruit is brisk, with quite lively acidity and a little earthy tone through the mid-palate and finish. By Neil Cammies (UK)

Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2012 - Decanter September 2014 - 16.25/20Summer berry nose with a palate of good acidity and flavours of cranberry and red cherry. Quite long, with a peppery finish.

Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2012 - The Times - December 21st 2013 - "Rich, gamey, rose-scented spice"If there are only a few of you and the milder game such as partridge is on the menu, opt for a juicy burgundy such as Louis Latour's fine 2012 Bourgogne Pinot Noir made from low-yielding 25-year-old vines and brimming with rich, gamey, rose-scented spice. Just the ticket, too, with honey roast ham and cumberland sauce. By Jane MacQuitty (UK).

Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2012 - Western Morning News - December 14th 2013 - "A classis red Burgundy"Louis Latour Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2012 is what I call a classic red burgundy. This is a young, vigorous wine with a pellucid ruby colour and textbook pinot noir aromas of bright fresh cherries and raspberries. The fruit corresponds fully, flooding the tastebuds with vivid juicy flavours clothed in a firm but gentle grip of tannin. It's the perfect red wine with fatty, rich and complicated dishes, in particular turkey with all the trimmings, or Boxing Day cold cuts. By Ned Halley (UK).

Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2012 - Sunday Express - Jamie Goode - November 2013 - "Lovely"Celebrity red grape pinot noir hails from Burgundy, but it's rare to find even vaguely affordable examples that taste good. This one, with its lovely, silky, red-cherry and plum fruit, fits the bill. It would be a good match for the beetroot, Gorgonzola and pear salad. Jamie Goode (UK).

Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2009 - My Wine Pal - October 2011 - "Should not be overlooked"This is an entry level Pinot Noir for Louis Latour, but should not be overlooked. This wine was pale garnet in colour. Light cherry nose. Raspberry, brambleberry and vanilla flavours. Medium tannins and high acidity. Cherry flavours show up in the mid palate. Nice wine. By Mark Anthony (Canada).

Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2007 - Telegraph.co.uk - June 19th 2009 - "Inimitably Pinot"Pale, almost rosé in colour and rather muted on the nose. Inimitably pinot though, with expected game and vegetal notes and ideal for those who find New World pinot a bit too much.

Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2007 - Traveling Golfer - June 2006 - "Silky Smooth"Sweet raspberry aromas to go with touches of cinnamon and cloves. It all follows to the palate. Just a nice, flavourful and light-weight pinot that's silky smooth going down the hatch. By Rick Van Sickle, Canada.

2006 Pinot Noir - Democrat and Chronicle.com - USA - October 21st 2008:Spicy, fruity and earthy all in one elegant and affordable package.

2006 Bourgogne Pinot Noir - The Irish Times Magazine - October 11th 2008The market leader, and not a bad introduction to Burgundy. Light, with easy brambly fruits, and no real tannins, this is very good on its own, with tuna or salmon, as well as chicken and pork dishes. John Wilson

Bourgogne Pinot Noir - Leslie Sbrocco - NYTimes.com Wines of the Week...seek out this wine, which looks and tastes more expensive than its bargain price tag. Medium-bodied and elegant with light tannins, it smells of sweet, moist earth and tastes of cherries.

2003 Pinot Noir - Vancouver Lifestyles - February 2006 - 88 points :This is an approachable easy-drinking wine, the nose has raspberry and cherry notes and the palate is bold,smooth with lots of fruit. The finish lingers with a hint of leather and vanilla. Well-priced, pleasant and versatile.
